Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a connection socket, a server and a computer device. Background Art
[0002] In some occasions where connection is required, such as the connection between male connectors and female connectors in electrical connectors, liquid or air cooling connectors, the two interconnected devices need to be precisely aligned to ensure the reliability of the connection. However, in actual applications, taking a server of a computer device as an example, the server includes a first connector, and the computer device includes a rack and a second connector provided on the rack. When the server is installed on the rack, the first connector and the second connector are often difficult to align and connect due to errors in position and angle between the first connector and the second connector. Summary of the invention
[0003] In view of this, the present application provides a connection seat to improve the position error and angle error between the first connection member and the second connection member, so as to facilitate the alignment and connection between the first connection member and the second connection member.
[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides a connection seat suitable for connecting with a first connection member of a server, and the connection seat includes a first support member, a second support member and an elastic member. The first support member has a mounting groove, and the second support member is at least partially movably arranged in the mounting groove and used to install the first connection member. The second support member is configured to be able to deflect relative to the axial direction of the first support member when subjected to force, so that an angle is formed between the axial direction of the second support member and the axial direction of the first support member, and the second support member is configured to be able to move along a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the first support member when subjected to force. The elastic member includes a first ring body and a second ring body connected to each other, the first ring body is surrounded by the second ring body and elastically matched with the second ring body, and there is a gap between the first ring body and the second ring body, so that the second ring body can be elastically translated or deflected relative to the first ring body. The side of the first ring body away from the second ring body is against the inner wall forming the mounting groove, and the second ring body is configured to be sleeved on the first connection member. When the second support member moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member, the first ring body and the second ring body are driven to translate and / or deflect relative to each other.
[0005] In the above-mentioned connection seat, the second support member can move and deflect relative to the first support member to drive the axial movement and deflection of the first connection member relative to the first support member, so as to facilitate the first connection member to overcome the angular error and position error between the first connection member and the second connection member, and facilitate the alignment and connection between the first connection member and the second connection member. When the first connection member moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member, the distance between the first connection member and the inner wall of the installation groove changes, so that the gap between the first circle body and the second circle body changes, and the elastic member undergoes elastic deformation. When the elastic member returns to its original state, the first connection member can be reset by resetting the second circle body, so as to facilitate the first connection member to reset when the connection with the second connection member is released.
[0006] In at least one embodiment, the elastic member further includes a third ring body, the third ring body is arranged around the second ring body and has a gap with the second ring body, the third ring body is located on the side of the first ring body facing the second ring body and has a gap with the first ring body. The third ring body has a first end and a second end, the first end is connected to the first ring body, and the second end is connected to the second ring body.
[0007] In the above embodiment, when the first connecting member moves and / or deflects relative to the first supporting member, the gap between the second ring body and the third ring body decreases, the gap between the first ring body and the third ring body decreases, and the elastic member is compressed and deformed in the direction of the movement and / or deflection of the first connecting member. When the first ring body, the second ring body and the third ring body are reset, the elastic member returns to its original state, which is conducive to driving the first connecting member to reset.
[0008] In at least one embodiment, the elastic member also includes a plurality of connecting parts, and the connecting parts are provided in plurality, and the plurality of connecting parts are arranged around the outer circumference of the second circle body, and the connecting parts can produce elastic deformation; when the second support member moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member, at least one of the connecting parts applies a force to the second circle body opposite to the deformation direction of the connecting part, so that the second circle body drives the first connecting member to reset.
[0009] In the above embodiment, the connecting portion can undergo elastic deformation so that the second ring body can move and / or deflect relative to the first support member, and an elastic force is generated when the connecting portion is deformed. The elastic force is opposite to the deformation direction of the connecting portion, thereby facilitating the second ring body to reset, and further facilitating the second ring body to drive the first connecting member to reset.
[0010] In at least one embodiment, the elastic member includes a mounting portion, which is disposed on the outside of the first circle body, connected to the first support member, and located outside the mounting groove.
[0011] In the above embodiment, the elastic member can be installed on the first support member through the installation part to improve the installation stability of the elastic member, so that when the elastic member is deformed, the first ring body, the second ring body and the connecting part are not easy to be separated from the installation groove. In addition, the installation part is installed outside the installation groove, which is conducive to separating the elastic member as a whole from the first support member through the installation part, and reducing the situation where the first ring body, the second ring body and the connecting part cannot be removed from the installation groove.
[0012] In at least one embodiment, the first circle body and the second circle body are formed by bending and coiling a single metal.
[0013] In the above embodiment, the first circle body and the second circle body are made of metal, which is beneficial to improving the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of the elastic member and is beneficial to the elastic deformation of the elastic member. In addition, the first circle body and the second circle body do not need to be assembled, which is convenient for the production and processing of the elastic member.
[0014] In at least one embodiment, the first ring body and the second ring body are made of plastic and are integrally formed.
[0015] In the above embodiment, the first circle body and the second circle body are integrally formed, which is convenient for plastic injection molding and is also beneficial for improving the connection stability at the connection between the first circle body and the second circle body, so that the elastic member is not easy to break when deformed.
[0016] In at least one embodiment, the first support member includes a main body and a support portion, the mounting groove is provided in the main body, the support portion is provided in the main body and is located outside the mounting groove, and the support portion is used to cooperate with the casing of the server to form a mounting cavity.
[0017] In the above embodiment, when assembling the connecting base and the casing of the server, the support portion cooperates with the wall of the casing to form an installation cavity, thereby limiting the axial movement of the elastic member and the second support member located in the installation groove along the first support member, so as to improve the installation stability of the elastic member and the second support member.
[0018] In addition, the present application also provides a server capable of improving the docking accuracy between the first connecting member and the second connecting member.
[0019] An embodiment of the present application provides a server, including a casing, a first connecting member and a connecting seat in any of the above embodiments, wherein the connecting seat is arranged on the casing, the first supporting member is connected to the casing, and the first connecting member is connected to the second supporting member along the axial direction of the second supporting member.
[0020] In the above server, the first connecting member can move with the second supporting member, so that the first connecting member can adjust its position and angle according to the position of the second connecting member, thereby facilitating accurate docking of the first connecting member and the second connecting member.
[0021] In at least one embodiment, along the axial direction of the first supporting member, the elastic member has a first side and a second side opposite to each other, the first side abuts against the first connecting member, and the second side abuts against the second supporting member.
[0022] In the above embodiment, the elastic member is clamped between the first connecting member and the second supporting member. When the first connecting member and the second supporting member are deflected, the relative positions of the first side and the second side of the elastic member are changed, and the first side and the second side have a tendency to return to their original state. The first side applies a force to the first connecting member, and the second side and the second supporting member apply a force to facilitate the first connecting member and the second supporting member to reset after deflection.
[0023] In addition, the present application also provides a computer device capable of improving the docking accuracy between the first connecting member and the second connecting member.
[0024] An embodiment of the present application provides a computer device, comprising a rack, a second connecting member, and a server in any of the above embodiments. The second connecting member is arranged on the rack, and the second connecting member is used to connect with the first connecting member.
[0025] In the above-mentioned computer equipment, when the second connecting member of the rack is difficult to directly align with the first connecting member of the server, the first connecting member can be moved with the second supporting member to a position where it can be aligned with the second connecting member, so as to facilitate accurate docking of the first connecting member and the second connecting member, thereby reducing the risk of the first connecting member and the second connecting member not being able to align and connect.

The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.
[0074] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the technical terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish different objects, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number, specific order or primary and secondary relationship of the indicated technical features. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is more than two, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0075] It should be noted that the thickness, length, width and other dimensions of various components in the embodiments of the present application shown in the drawings, as well as the overall thickness, length, width and other dimensions of the integrated device are only exemplary and should not constitute any limitation to the present application.
[0076] The embodiment of the present application provides a connection seat suitable for connecting with a first connection member of a server, and the connection seat includes a first support member, a second support member and an elastic member. The first support member has a mounting groove, and the second support member is at least partially movably arranged in the mounting groove and used to install the first connection member. The second support member is configured to be able to deflect relative to the axial direction of the first support member when subjected to force, so that an angle is formed between the axial direction of the second support member and the axial direction of the first support member, and the second support member is configured to be able to move along a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the first support member when subjected to force. The elastic member includes a first ring body and a second ring body connected to each other, the first ring body is surrounded by the second ring body and elastically matched with the second ring body, and there is a gap between the first ring body and the second ring body, so that the second ring body can be elastically translated or deflected relative to the first ring body. The side of the first ring body away from the second ring body is against the inner wall forming the mounting groove, and the second ring body is configured to be sleeved on the first connection member. When the second support member moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member, the first ring body and the second ring body are driven to translate and / or deflect relative to each other.
[0077] In the above-mentioned connection seat, the second support member can move and deflect relative to the first support member to drive the axial movement and deflection of the first connection member relative to the first support member, so as to facilitate the first connection member to overcome the angular error and position error between the first connection member and the second connection member, and facilitate the alignment and connection of the first connection member and the second connection member. When the first connection member moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member, the distance between the first connection member and the inner wall of the installation groove changes, so that the gap between the first circle body and the second circle body changes, and the elastic member undergoes elastic deformation. When the elastic member returns to its original state, the first connection member can be reset by resetting the second circle body, so as to facilitate the reset of the first connection member when the connection with the second connection member is released.
[0078] The embodiments of the present application are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0079] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer device 100 , which includes a server 11 and a rack 12 , and the server 11 is connected to the rack 12 .
[0080] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The server 11 includes a housing 111, a first connector 112, and a connector base 200. The connector base 200 is disposed on the housing 111, and the first connector 112 is disposed on the connector base 200. The computer device 100 also includes a second connector 13, which is disposed on the rack 12 and connected to the first connector 112. When the server 11 is connected to the rack 12, the first connector 112 can adjust its position and angle through the connector base 200, so that the first connector 112 and the second connector 13 can be accurately connected, thereby reducing the risk of the first connector 112 and the second connector 13 being difficult to connect due to installation errors.
[0081] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the connection base 200 includes a first support member 21, a second support member 22 and an elastic member 23. The first support member 21 has a mounting groove 211, and the second support member 22 is at least partially movably disposed in the mounting groove 211 and is used to mount the first connection member 112. At least a portion of the elastic member 23 is disposed in the mounting groove 211, and the elastic member 23 is used to drive the first connection member 112 and the second support member 22 to reset.
[0082] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the mounting groove 211 has a bottom wall 2111 , and the bottom wall 2111 is provided with a floating hole 212 . One end of the second support member 22 is abutted against the bottom wall 2111 of the mounting groove 211 , and the other end is passed through the floating hole 212 . The second support member 22 can move in the floating hole 212 .
[0083] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the first support member 21 includes a main body 213 and a support portion 214, and the mounting groove 211 is provided in the main body 213. The support portion 214 is provided in the main body 213 and is located outside the mounting groove 211. The support portion 214 is used to cooperate with the housing 111 to form a mounting cavity. When assembling the connecting seat 200 and the housing 111 of the server 11, the support portion 214 is abutted against the wall surface of the housing 111, so that the inner wall surface of the mounting groove 211 and the wall surface of the housing 111 are jointly enclosed to form the mounting cavity. The bottom wall 2111 of the mounting groove 211 is opposite to the wall surface of the housing 111 to limit the axial movement of the elastic member 23 and the second support member 22 located in the mounting groove 211 along the first support member 21, so as to improve the stability of the installation of the elastic member 23 and the second support member 22.
[0084] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the second support member 22 includes a floating portion 221 and a limiting portion 222 connected to each other, the floating portion 221 is inserted into the floating hole 212, the floating portion 221 has a mounting hole 2211, and the first connecting member 112 is mounted in the mounting hole 2211. The limiting portion 222 is annular and is arranged around the outer periphery of one end of the floating portion 221, and the limiting portion 222 abuts against the bottom wall 2111 of the mounting groove 211.
[0085] In one embodiment, the limiting portion 222 is located in the installation cavity to limit the axial movement of the second support member 22 as a whole along the first support member 21 .
[0086] See also Figures 1 to 3 , the axis of the first connecting member 112 is the first axis L1, and the axial direction of the first connecting member 112 is the direction of the first axis L1. When the first connecting member 112 is connected to the second connecting member 13, the second connecting member 13 pushes the first connecting member 112 in the direction of the first axis L1, so that the first connecting member 112 drives the second supporting member 22 to move in the direction of the first axis L1. At this time, the limiting portion 222 can abut against the bottom wall 2111 of the mounting groove 211, limiting the second supporting member 22 from continuing to move in the direction of the first axis L1, thereby facilitating the connection of the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13 in the direction of the first axis L1. Alternatively, the second supporting member 22 moves under the action of an external force, and the second supporting member 22 drives the first connecting member 112 to move to a state where it can be aligned with the second connecting member 13, so that the first connecting member 112 can be connected to the second connecting member 13 in the direction of the first axis L1.
[0087] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 , Figure 2 The connection seat 200 is in a state when the second support member 22 is not deflected and moved. Figure 4 is the state of the connection seat 200 when the second support member 22 is deflected. In one embodiment, the second support member 22 is configured to be able to deflect relative to the axial direction of the first support member 21 when subjected to force, so that an angle is formed between the axial direction of the second support member 22 and the axial direction of the first support member 21, and the second support member 22 is configured to be able to move in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the first support member 21 when subjected to force. The second support member 22 can move and deflect relative to the first support member 21 to drive the axial movement and deflection of the first connection member 112 relative to the first support member 21, so as to facilitate the first connection member 112 to overcome the angular error and position error between the first connection member 112 and the second connection member 13, and facilitate the alignment and connection of the first connection member 112 and the second connection member 13.
[0088] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4In one embodiment, the second support member 22 can be axially deflected relative to the first support member 21 so that the first connecting member 112 can be axially deflected relative to the first support member 21. The axis of the first support member 21 is the second axis L2, and the direction of the second axis L2 is the axial direction of the first support member 21. The axis of the second support member 22 is the third axis L3, and the third axis L3 is always consistent with the direction of the first axis L1. When the first connecting member 112 is axially deflected relative to the first support member 21, a first angle α is formed between the first axis L1 and the second axis L2. When the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13 are not properly docked due to an angle error, the second support member 22 can be deflected relative to the first support member 21 so that the first connecting member 112 can be deflected to a position where it can dock with the second connecting member 13, thereby facilitating the alignment and connection of the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13.
[0089] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the second support member 22 can deflect relative to the first support member 21 in an angle range greater than 0 degree and less than or equal to 6.0 degrees, that is, the range of the first angle α is greater than 0 degree and less than or equal to 6.0 degrees. This arrangement not only facilitates the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13 to overcome the angle error and achieve docking, but also enables the first connecting member 112 to be less likely to shake, thereby facilitating a stable connection with the second connecting member 13.
[0090] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the second support member 22 can deflect in any direction perpendicular to the second axis L2, for example, the second support member 22 deflects 5.9 degrees in the first direction X, or the second support member 22 deflects 5.9 degrees in the second direction Y. The first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y, and the first direction X is perpendicular to the direction of the second axis L2, and the second direction Y is perpendicular to the direction of the second axis L2. In application, the actual deflection angle of the second support member 22 is determined according to the angular error between the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13.
[0091] In other embodiments, the first angle α may also be 0.5 degrees, 1.6 degrees, 3.6 degrees, 4.9 degrees, 5.0 degrees or 5.5 degrees.
[0092] In other embodiments, the first direction X and the second direction Y may also be in a non-perpendicular state, for example, the angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y is 30 degrees, 60 degrees, 90 degrees, 120 degrees or 150 degrees.
[0093] In one embodiment, the second support member 22 can move axially relative to the first support member 21 , for example, the second support member 22 can move in the first direction X or the second direction Y.
[0094] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the moving distance of the second support member 22 is the first distance P1, the range of the first distance P1 is 0 to 1.1 mm, the first distance P1 refers to the distance of the third axis L3 relative to the second axis L2, and the moving direction of the second support member 22 is the direction perpendicular to the second axis L2. For example, the distance that the second support member 22 moves in the first direction X1 or the second direction Y1 can be 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1.0 mm or 1.1 mm. For example, the second support member 22 moves in the first direction X1, and the first distance P1 is 1 mm.
[0095] See also Figure 7 In some embodiments, the second support member 22 can move in the first direction X1 and the second direction Y1 at the same time. When the moving direction of the second support member 22 is between the first direction X1 and the second direction Y1, the moving direction of the second support member 22 can form an angle with the first direction X1 and the second direction Y1 at the same time. The angle formed between the moving direction of the second support member 22 and the first direction X1 is the second angle β, and the range of the second angle β is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.
[0096] See also Figure 7 In some embodiments, the second support member 22 can move and deflect simultaneously relative to the axis of the first support member 21, and the offset distance of the geometric center of the second support member 22 along the first direction X or the second direction Y is a second distance P2, and the range of the second distance P2 is 0 to 3 mm.
[0097] For example, when the second support member 22 moves and deflects in the first direction X1 and the second direction Y1 simultaneously so that the first angle α is 5.9 degrees and the second angle β is 45 degrees, the second distance P2 between the geometric center of the second support member 22 and the geometric center of the first support member 21 is 2.65 mm.
[0098] See Figure Figure 3 and Figure 8In one embodiment, the elastic member 23 includes a first ring body 231 and a second ring body 232 connected to each other. The first ring body 231 is larger than the second ring body 232 and is arranged around the second ring body 232. There is a gap between the first ring body 231 and the second ring body 232, so that the second ring body 232 can be elastically translated or deflected relative to the first ring body 231. The side of the first ring body 231 away from the first ring body 231 is pressed against the inner wall forming the mounting groove 211, and the first ring body 231 is configured to be sleeved on the first connecting member 112. When the second supporting member 22 moves and / or deflects relative to the first supporting member 21, the first ring body 231 and the second ring body 232 are driven to translate and / or deflect relative to each other, and the elastic member 23 applies a force opposite to the moving and / or deflecting direction of the second supporting member 22 to the first connecting member 112.
[0099] When the first connecting member 112 moves and / or deflects relative to the first supporting member 21, the distance between the first connecting member 112 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 211 changes, and the distance between the second supporting member 22 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 211 also changes, so that the gap between the first circle body 231 and the second circle body 232 changes, and the elastic member 23 undergoes elastic deformation. When the elastic member 23 returns to its original state, the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 can be reset by the reset of the second circle body 232, so that when the first connecting member 112 is disconnected from the second connecting member 13, the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 are reset relative to the first supporting member 21. When the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 are reset, the first axis L1, the second axis L2 and the third axis L3 coincide.
[0100] See also Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In one embodiment, the elastic member 23 further includes a third ring body 233, which is disposed around the second ring body 232 and has a gap between the third ring body 233 and the second ring body 232. The third ring body 233 is located on the side of the first ring body 231 facing the second ring body 232 and has a gap between the third ring body 233 and the first ring body 231. The third ring body 233 has a first end 2331 and a second end 2332, wherein the first end 2331 is connected to the first ring body 231, and the second end 2332 is connected to the second ring body 232. The relative positions of the first end 2331 and the second end 2332 are as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 as shown in .
[0101] See also Fig.10 In one embodiment, the second ring body 232 is a closed ring, and the second end portion 2332 is connected to a side of the second ring body 232 facing the first ring body 231 .
[0102] When the first connecting member 112 moves and / or deflects relative to the first supporting member 21, the gap between the second ring body 232 and the third ring body 233 decreases, and the gap between the first ring body 231 and the third ring body 233 decreases, and the elastic member 23 is compressed and deformed in the direction of the movement and / or deflection of the first connecting member 112. When the first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the third ring body 233 are reset, the elastic member 23 returns to its original state, which is conducive to driving the first connecting member 112 to reset.
[0103] In one embodiment, the extension length of the third ring body 233 is greater than the extension length of the second ring body 232, so that the third ring body 233 at least surrounds the second ring body 232. Under the condition that the moving distance of the second support member 22 remains unchanged and / or the deflection angle remains unchanged, the longer the extension length of the third ring body 233 is, the smaller the overall deformation degree of the elastic member 23 is, which is conducive to reducing the plastic deformation of the elastic member 23 and facilitating the elastic member 23 to return to its original state after deformation.
[0104] See also Fig.11 In one embodiment, the elastic member 23 further includes a connecting portion 235, the connecting portion 235 connects the first circle body 231 and the second circle body 232, and the connecting portion 235 is a component with elastic deformation ability such as rubber or spring.
[0105] See also Fig.11 In one embodiment, a plurality of connecting portions 235 are provided, and the plurality of connecting portions 235 are arranged around the outer periphery of the second ring body 232, and the connecting portions 235 can produce elastic deformation; when the second support member 22 moves and / or deflects relative to the first support member 21, at least one of the connecting portions 235 applies a force opposite to the deformation direction of the connecting portion 235 to the second ring body 232, so that the second ring body 232 drives the first connecting member 112 to reset.
[0106] In the above embodiment, when the second support member 22 moves, at least one connecting portion 235 can undergo elastic deformation so that the second ring body 232 can move and / or deflect relative to the first support member 21, and an elastic force is generated when the connecting portion 235 is deformed. The elastic force is opposite to the deformation direction of the connecting portion 235, which is conducive to driving the second ring body 232 to reset, and then facilitates the second ring body 232 to drive the first connecting member 112 to reset.
[0107] See also Fig.11 In one embodiment, four connecting parts 235 are provided, and the four connecting parts 235 are evenly distributed between the first circle body 231 and the second circle body 232. When the second support member 22 moves in the first direction X, the connecting parts 235 located in the first direction X can be elastically deformed; when the second support member 22 moves in the second direction Y, the connecting parts 235 located in the second direction Y can be elastically deformed.
[0108] See also Fig.10 and Fig.11 In one embodiment, the elastic member 23 includes a mounting portion 234, which is disposed on the outer side of the first ring body 231, connected to the first support member 21, and located outside the mounting groove 211. The elastic member 23 can be mounted on the first support member 21 through the mounting portion 234 to improve the mounting stability of the elastic member 23, so that when the elastic member 23 is deformed, the first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the connecting portion 235 are not easily separated from the mounting groove 211. In addition, the mounting portion 234 is mounted outside the mounting groove 211, which is conducive to separating the elastic member 23 as a whole from the first support member 21 through the mounting portion 234, and reducing the situation where the first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the connecting portion 235 cannot be removed from the mounting groove 211.
[0109] In one embodiment, the mounting portion 234 is detachably connected to the support portion 214. For example, the mounting portion 234 can be detachably connected to the support portion 214 by bolts, pins, and other components.
[0110] See also Fig.10 and Fig.11 In one embodiment, two mounting portions 234 are provided, and the two mounting portions 234 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the first ring body 231 to improve the force balance of the first ring body 231. For example, the two mounting portions 234 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the first ring body 231 along the first direction X.
[0111] In one embodiment, the first ring body 231 and the second ring body 232 are formed by bending and coiling a single metal. In other embodiments, the first ring body 231 and the second ring body 232 can also be made of plastic and integrally formed.
[0112] See also Fig. 9 In one embodiment, the first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the third ring body 233 are formed by bending and coiling a single metal. The first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the third ring body 233 are made of metal, which is beneficial to improving the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of the elastic member 23 and is beneficial to the elastic deformation of the elastic member 23. In addition, the first ring body 231, the second ring body 232 and the third ring body 233 do not need to be assembled, which is convenient for the production and processing of the elastic member 23.
[0113] In the embodiment where the elastic portion is made of a single piece of metal, the metal may be a wire-shaped metal or a sheet-shaped metal.
[0114] In one embodiment, the first circle body 231, the second circle body 232 and the connecting portion 235 are made of plastic and are integrally formed. This arrangement facilitates the elastic member 23 to be molded by plastic injection molding, and is also beneficial for improving the connection stability at the connection between the first circle body 231 and the connecting portion 235, and the second circle body 232 and the connecting portion 235, so that the elastic member 23 is not easy to break when deformed.
[0115] See also Figure 8 In one embodiment, along the axial direction of the first support member 21 , the elastic member 23 has a first side 2321 and a second side 2322 opposite to each other, the first side 2321 abuts against the first connecting member 112 , and the second side 2322 abuts against the second support member 22 .
[0116] In one embodiment, the first side 2321 is a side of the second ring body 232 facing away from the second support member 22 , and the second side 2322 is a side of the second ring body 232 facing the second support member 22 .
[0117] The elastic member 23 is clamped between the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22. When the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 are deflected, the relative positions of the first side 2321 and the second side 2322 of the elastic member 23 are changed, and the first side 2321 and the second side 2322 have a tendency to return to their original state. The first side 2321 applies a force to the first connecting member 112, and the second side 2322 and the second supporting member 22 apply a force to facilitate the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 to reset after being deflected.
[0118] In one embodiment, the first connecting member 112 is a plug, and the second connecting member 13 is a socket. The plug is disposed on the connecting seat 200, and the connecting seat 200 can overcome the installation error between the plug and the socket so that the plug and the socket can be accurately connected.
[0119] The connection socket 200 in the present application can also be applied to other equipment, such as for connecting pipelines, connecting power supplies and plugs, etc.
[0120] When the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13 cannot be aligned due to positional errors and angle errors, the second supporting member 22 can move and deflect in the mounting groove 211, so that the first connecting member 112 moves to a position where it can be aligned and connected with the second connecting member 13. When the second supporting member 22 and the first connecting member 112 move, the elastic member 23 generates elastic deformation to apply a force on the first connecting member 112 that is opposite to the movement and deflection direction of the second supporting member 22. When the first connecting member 112 and the second connecting member 13 are disconnected, the force drives the first connecting member 112 and the second supporting member 22 to reset.
[0121] In addition, those skilled in the art may also make other changes in the present application. Of course, these changes made based on the present application should be included in the scope disclosed in the present application.
